Jen Gunter Instagram – Crunchy corn salad.
This is one of my favorite crunchy big salad lunches that comes together in less than 15 minutes and is so worth it. Now that corn is in season I am making it a lot. This is for one. What can I say, I like a big salad!
Microwave one ear of corn (I peel almost all of it and leave 1-2 layers on) for 2 minutes on high
Dressing: mix this all in the bowl you will use for the salad:
2 tsp tahini
1 tbsp plain Greek yogurt (full fat, no fat whatever)
Juice 1/2 lime
1 tbsp water
Sriracha to taste
Chop and add to the dressing:
1 cucumber peeled (or unpeeled if it’s the kind that doesn’t need it)
1 red pepper
1 cup cilantro including stems
1 jalapeño
Corn kernels
1/4 cup crumbled feta
Mix and enjoy
I always think a salad like this is going to have a bazillion grams of fiber, so I decided to count and it looks like it’s about 11 or 12 g.
When I want a super mega fiber rich lunch, I make this into a wrap with these carb cutting La Tortilla tortillas (swipe to see). We bought them once because there were essentially no other choices at the store for some strange reason, and when I realized they have 14 g of fiber per serving I was sold. They are one of those good staples to have in the house to quickly bump up the fiber in your day. Sometimes you need those products that just get the job done 😂 | Posted on 01/Jun/2024 04:08:42
